    @aaronkellerOW you guys said that the inability to hot fix was fixed at the start of season 2. Now you’re saying you’ve NOW fixed it? Is this gonna be a revolving door comment? #Overwatch

    For fuksakes I keep on disconnecting and lagging in my games, we were so close to winning and I had my ult, but no overwatch just wants me to lose. I've had to reconnect to the same match 3 times.

    @TheHorseMeister @fxshaw And games already multiplatform only Nintendo mostly missing out on call of duty but they still get some Activision games like crash and Spyro, overwatch only giving it to niche audiences with this acquisition

    @Ruso_del_Este @Battlefield And if it wasn't a Problem like you are trying to say, the community wouldn't have flamed them the whole life cycle of the game. Specialists just don't belong in a battlefield game. Not that hard to understand. If you like hero shooters, try overwatch, apex, valorant

    Well, main problem I see so far with Oddballers is that there didn't seem to be a lot of people playing it tonight. I'm sure they were playing it earlier today. It is a fun one though - once you get the jist of it down. Sent the raid on to @peanutt88a playing Overwatch 2!

    2 Month new channel. Overwatch 2 almost 20 average a day. Switch To Val Because Overwatch2 Ranked Is Massively broken and Unfun. Channels A Ghost town. People really expect you to play something but complain about you getting frustrated with it. Twitch viewers are NPCs

    i cannot play overwatch while my camera keeps flicking down every ten seconds… will be attempting to fix it tomorrow

    Overwatch should fix the wait times for compet role queue tank and dmg and this comes from a support ***. 5-8 min wait times between matches is batshit.

    @Luckyjust1y @Ka1adin_ @necros_ow But the Overwatch balance team refuse to nerf her oneshot, instead they change other aspects of her kit that don’t resolve the issue plaguing every match from gold to GM as you can see not balancing from top to bottom cause this problem. Their reason not to touch her is… 2/??

    Ouch. First stream, and man... we had it all. Mic issues. Stream issues. I absolutely sucked at Overwatch... but ended it with 2 followers, a victory, and an endorsement (in Overwatch). All in all... roller coaster of a stream. Can't wait til next time. :-D

    So are my overwatch accounts that have merged, still have no sign of my xbox + ps4 items. But my console has happily merged into the name of my pc account. I JUST WANT MY ITEMS 😭 is there even a fix yet or? #Overwatch2 #Fixit

    My overwatch has been broken lately and it’s so frusterating 😭😭 I just wanna play my silly little game

    @_ImTheAnswer Overwatch is a lazy game. It has a great engine. But the devs are just lazy asf. It wasn’t even supposed to be considered a casual game I feel like. That’s why they had casual play and competitive play. But the problem is they created quickplay but made it half rounds.

    If CS:GO didn't die from Olafboost, or Dota didn't die from the hook teleport glitch, or overwatch didn't die from blizzard as a company, a couple people showing their *** in sim racing won't kill it

    Valorant Is Still so broken is unbelievable. Its 3 Years Old and their Ranked System is on Par with How Bad Overwatch 2s is. Someone let me come design their ranked system for free and It will be better than those that get paid These Big Dollars to not understand a ranked system

  • PogeBro
    Blookey (@PogeBro) reported

    I don't even play overwatch anymore, but this roadhog nerf has completely made him a throw pick because he can no longer hook 1-shot any hero. His problem is his 700hp and 350hp heal every 8 seconds that let him be far out of position hook and then get back alive with his team.

  • TheHorseMeister
    Morten (@TheHorseMeister) reported

    @grabowski_luke @fxshaw You are right. It would be wise, and they probably will. But the Bethesda deal is making me doubt more players are going to experience great games such as, Crash, Spyro, Tony Hawk, Sekiro, Diablo and Overwatch. Only less.

    do NOT play overwatch if you don’t wanna have anger issues

  • okaych4y
    chay (@okaych4y) reported

    overwatch needs a completely new hero design team and the game will be good again, the fact that genji gets nerfed all the time and that sojourn somehow is still good even after a nerf is an issue

    @CommentCopped To be the devil's advocate Overwatch was the only team at blizz not involved in any of the SA stuff, with the workplace in it being described as very healthy (the stuff being reported was from the WoW and Diablo parts) While with HP, the problem goes back to it's core creator
